How can you insinuate no state in Nigeria rejected Tinubu more than the EDO when the the records/results clearly shows Tinubu had 144,471 vote, in delta 90,183 and Tinubu won rivers naw with 231,591, whether you believe or not his your sole problem. it counted and court trials are over.
No state in the entire East region gave Tinubu/APC more than what he scored in SS, stop arguing like a lame blind man.
APGA was formed in 2006 buh lemme remind you that PDP started in 1999, technically PDP is old enough to be a parent party for APGA, besides who are the people that formed APGA go n verify.

APC was initially formed by AC, CPC and NPDP, but we all saw how the NPDP where timely flushed out.

I won't answer that your jamb question again, if it so much worries you people tag you Igbo for attacking Tinubu dial 911 or UN customer care. nonsense

In yoruba there is an adage that says, Farm will not belong to father & son make e no get boundaries. You can stand here and claim SS & SE are one but record & history as shown everybody they answer in papa name, weytin allign SE & SS no pass PDP
Igbos nearly dragged SS into the civilian war But they were wiser , and so many times the SS have come out to disassociate themselves from East. what love does a man really have for chicken ??
I don't need to seperate a union that never existed, beside the real sons of SS like Asari, Reno, wike are all doing a good job to remind the igbos whatever they forget

lolz
u will tag the same people u mentioned now igbos the day dey decide to flip side
nor be yoruba again we know u in and out
after calling GEJ Azikiwe in 2015, he is now ur best friend today
it is only a fool that will take yoruba friendship to the heart. chameleons

reddingtonblack:
On paper APC won two, but in real sense LP and APGA are subsidiaries of PDP, literally its 3-2.

its time you show me where i tagged you igbo but know this,

Nobody or region carry anti Tinubu for head pass Igbos in the 2023 election ... technically its not out of place if people assume the attack is from an igbo.
Tinubu won local govts and a state in SS, thats reasonable @least, why do igbos always like to bring SS into there mess.

Like i said before, if igbos will stop and look back they will realize the only thing chasing them is there own shadow ... pa adebanjo, falz, iyabo ojo never supported Tinubu show were they tagged them igbo or keep quiet jare

no state rejected Tinubu more than my state Edo.
we rejected him openly
Tinubu only managed to win some part of Edo north because of Oshiomole and nothing else.
in delta state, APC didnt win any single local govt, likewise Rivers, Bayelsa etc

can u help me mention the state tinubu won in the SS (i pray u mention rivers).

APGA has been ruling Anambra since 2006 but here u are calling APGA an extension of PDP
is APC not an extension of PDP?
More than half of those in APC today were all once in PDP. from Ganduje to Akume to el rufai etc
all these are not even my problem.
but why must i be tagged igbo because i dont like tinubu?
i know u have also assumed i am igbo too

your question i bolded above,
igbos and SS are one in terms of political alignment
we have always voted along the same line since 1999
infact when we had our SS president GEJ, all of u tagged him igbo because of buhari and APC, now u want to separate them
aint u people really foolish?
suddenly u now know that SS and SE are differernt, but in 2015, u all categorized us as one.

reddingtonblack:
Lets start from how many igbos voted Tinubu, why won't people steroetype everyone that attack Tinubu as Igbo, which tribe dominate anti- Apc/Tinubu,

Maybe igbos gave people enough reason to

same igbos have 2 APC governors. 5 APC senators. more than any other parties in the region

u be ozuor sha

that is not even my problem
why must everyone not supporting ur view be automatically tagged an igbo person?
tinubu didnt win any state in the SE and SS aside the abracadabra of Wike in Rivers
so why should everyone be an igbo person because he/she doesnt believe in ur so called Tinubu?
Buhari likewise didnt win any state in the SS nd SE twice trying but the North never and didn't tag anyone that spoke against Buhari govt as coming from a particular region

u people are just making yourselves look foolish in the eyes of every other part of Nigeria, all in the name of trying to demonize the igbos.
even yorubas that dont support Tinubu are also tagged igbos
is that not foolishness and display of mental illness

reddingtonblack:
If you know history so well, you will realize you are real fool here, yorubas don't do that "our son" "our brother" nonsense

when Obasanjo was president, the greatest opposition he had were is tribesmen
In Tinubu's political journey his greatest opposition of all time are Afenifere, bode geoge and OBj

If only the igbos will stop and look back, the only thing chasing them is there shadow.

ozuor
are u guys not tagging eveyone not supporting ur drug pusher igbos?
immediately u attack the govt or have a contrary view, u are automatically an igbo person.
even if ur name suggest otherwise, they will still tagged u that u are impersonating
i have never see such level of illiteracy and foolishness in my life B4

Let's hope he will bring his corporate boardroom/executive role experience onboard as a governor to reposition the state for greatness.

How he is going to marry this with the murky shitty waters of the Nigerian style of politics is something I can't wait to find out.

In all, I pray he wins and succeeds and I am able to key into his administration to fulfill my dream for investment in the state.

GO0DHardDick:
Alex otti could have still won if he has entered apga or another party, this is because the people were already fade up with PDP in that state. And besides the man has political weight in abia

How can LP fill in an irrelevant dude in edo 2024 elections and expect to win? Lol the binis are Saying it's time for the esans to rule yet LP dey fill in Bini man who's highly irrelevant and doesn't hold any political weight in Edo state. LP never ready to win state elections.

the same alex otti has been contesting for governor since 2015

so what is ur point?

if abia was tired of PDP, what happened to APC or APGA? why LP

hatred for obi because he contested against tinubu and won him handsdown will continue to make u guys not have sense

LP have not filled in anybody. he is just as aspirant under LP
deputy governor is from Edo north and he is just an aspirant under PDP

no party has done their primaries
u can continue to be an ozuor and an illiterate because u hate Obi

Elemosho478:
The Ironic thing is that you are the one that couldn't hide your bigotry and an hypocrite.

The former GOC was no longer there the new GOC that was in charge is an Igbo man , Okoro. It was an Igbo man that gave the command , the gibberish you are spewing is false.

God will surely punish most of u for spreading fake news

Charmingrascal:
Hmm
It is obvious that some of you cannot read or have comprehension issue.
The news states that Major-General V.U. Okoro is the GOC and everybody knows this but you can not read properly, hence you and your likes are claiming Bamidele Alabi is the GOC.
This is how IPOB put false narratives on the internet for their blind gullible followers.

Maybe it was IPOB that made Bamidele Alabi the GOC I still don't know

google could have help u out to know that it is a fake news but u choosed to be stupid as usual
Okoro was moved from there to ibadan in july and bamidele was used to replaced him in kaduna

Raf4:
In your widest day dreams. Even in the arrangement of kings according to their seniority, your oba is not even among the first 5.
Ooni of Ife, Sultan of Sokoto, Alaafin of Oyo, Awujale of Ijebu, Olowu of Orile Owu, before your Oba of Bini is considered probably after Shehu of Borno.

oh
i tot i was arguing with a human being with sense
now i know it is all sentiments
the same people that claimed tinubu is better than obi because of sentiment. i am not surprised though

go and learn ur history
or enjoy ur ignorance

Raf4:
Ask the unbiased elders in your community. They know the truth. Go and research about Ogiso from their descendants in Bini today, you will be surprised about the revelations they'll give you about their ancestors and the current Obaship in Bini today.

ozuor
ife owns benin but whenever Oba of Benin and Ooni meets, Ooni always stood up for the Oba

Raf4:
A fool will always resort to insult when unable to defend their fallacies.
I told you that Obagodo led some other people from Ile-Ife to the land where he founded and named Igodomigodo and established Ogiso dynasty where he became the 1st Ogiso. Yes, some other people outside of Ile-Ife joined him there.
Ile-Ife was aware of and always in contact with Igodomigodo, likewise the Igalas & Nupes, ever before Oranmiyan led another set of Ife people to invade Igodomigodo, renamed it Ile-Ibinu and established Obaship dynasty there.

In summary, both Igodomigodo and Ile-Ibinu/Bini were established by people from Ile-Ife.

lolz
u be proper ozuor

sense is really far from u
from Obagodo to Oraimiyan

does this make sense to u?

why does oramiyan have to invade benin again after his brother already owned benin?

Raf4:
Tell us the names of Obagodo's parents in igodomigodo or Bini land. Does the name Obagodo sound edoid to you?

lolz
so Obagodo fell from the sky
landed in ile ife and headed to benin

u be ozuor

Obagodo or Igodo was among the odionweres that made up the many autonomous communities/villages that agreed to come together and form a unified community for easy security, commerce and trade

Igodo was the most powerful then and he was chosen to lead to them. he rule very well and the kingship was left in his lineage.

can u tell me how he came from ife to benin?
i want to know

Raf4:
He came from Obadio family in Ile-Ife or do you know the name of his parents in igodomigodo?

nor be only Obadio
na ObaFM

How did Obadio come about?
who are they in Ife?

Raf4:
He came from Obadio family in Ile-Ife or do you know the name of his parents in igodomigodo?

lolz
from obagodo to obadio

u for say obaFM

ozuor

we benins are not like u people that claim what never existed
our history is well rooted
we have root and dates for every events

ordinary question i asked u now, u couldnt answer, yet u claimed u had facts

show me how obagodo came about from ife
his family and the dates and the dates he migrated to benin to found igodomigodo

Raf4:
Idiot. As usual, resorted to insult. Who told you Oduduwa established Ile-Ife? Oduduwa only came later to establish a dynasty that is still in existence today all over Yorubaland.
When your lies are burst and you're presented with factual evidence, be open to learning and be humble to accept corrections. Resorting to insult is an indication of a faulty claim on your part.

lolz
ozuor say evidence

please where are the evidence

if obagodo was from ife, how did he came about, who are his parents in ife? which year did he migrate to benin to found igodomigodo?
or he fell from heaven and landed in ife and headed to benin immediately
i am waiting for ur answers since u said u have facts
i want all this answers to be listed along side the dates

i have never seen a region so filled with liars, propagandist like the yoruba region
tufiakwa

Raf4:
What's the meaning of Obagodo in Edo/Bini language? Obagodo is purely Ife/Yoruba name, just like Obatala, Obameri, Obalufon, Obadio etc. Ogisos of Igodomigodo are from Ile-Ife.

ozuor
na waste of time engaging u guys
the brain is just too shallow

so because Obagodo has a meaning in yoruba, therefore he is yoruba?

if obagodo is from ife, how come oduduwa that founded ife came 1050 plus but obagodo reigned 40 BCE ?

Is it that u guys are so stupid in that region?

so ife already existed before oduduwa found it ?
so obagodo have to go to benin from ife to formed benin while his 32 lineage oduduwa after a thousand years later have to return back to found ife again

stupidity at it peak

All the Bini obas' heads were buried in Ile-Ife (Orun Oba Ado shrine) except that of Akenzua II and Ereduawa II. So what's your point?

do u want to know why?

Christistruth00:
And you didn't know that Obagodo of Ile Ife founded Igodomigodo Kingdom which is now Benin?!

lolz
nobody founded igodomigodo. igodomigodo was a collection of many villages and communities that came together and agreed to have one king.
ogiso igodo(obagodo) was chosen as the head among the odionweres. he rule very well and the kingship was left to his lineage. a name was also chosen for the entire community and they named it after him

our history is rooted

we dont go about claiming what doesnt exist like oduduwa falling from the sky, trekking all the way from saudi arabia or coming from none existent Oke Ora family

FreeStuffsNG:
Stressing that Oba Ewuare II’s claims are historically not correct, he added, “I read G.A. Akinola’s ‘The Origin of the Eweka Dynasty of Benin: A Study in the Use and Abuse of Oral Traditions (1976)’. In April 1973, the researcher was in the palace of the Oba of Benin, Akenzua II, on an interview appointment but the Oba changed his mind when he arrived. The Oba refused to speak with the man while he ‘wondered why a Yoruba should be interested in Benin history.’


“The researcher reported that his session with the king ended ‘with the Oba and his courtiers reminiscing about how Eko (that is Lagos) belongs to Benin by right of conquest long ago.’ I see a divergence here between the position of the current Oba of Benin and that of his ancestor, Akenzua II. The ancestor claimed Lagos as a war booty; the incumbent claims Lagos as a creation of his ancestors.”

“So, how could the ancestors of the Oba of Benin have been the ones who brought into existence a settlement that they waged war against in 1603 but which received the Portuguese explorer, Rui de Sequeira, in 1472?” Olagunju wondered.

Smh

Sadly, it's been one lie after another further diminishing the Binis in the eyes of many.

From the bursting of the Bini lie that the Oba of Benin never leaves the palace , internet era came and exposed the blatant lie. But for the expose by the internet, they would still continue with the lie whereas they knew it was a lie.

Next was lie that they did not originate from Ile Ife and heads of past Oba of Benin were not buried in Ile Ife but the Yoruba elders were so clever to preserve the history and location in Ile Ife till date.

The 3rd lie is the attempt to claim a land that does not belong to them not knowing that the Yoruba documented it well.

THE ORIGIN OF BENIN MONARCHY

What came to be known as the Benin kingdom did not being its existence as a kingdom in the sense of it being headed by a king or a traditional ruler, as it is known today. It really began as a conglomeration of villages each of which was headed by the oldest man in the community who is referred to as the Odionwere or village head. As time went on, these village united for the purpose of security against external aggression or for commerce, and the most powerful of the old people was said to have automatically assumed the supreme headship which eventual metamorphosed into what was known as king or Oba in Edo language.

Omo N’ Oba Erediauwa in his lecture on The Evolution of Traditional Rulership in Nigeria.Given under the auspices of the university of Ibadan, Institute of Africa studies on 11th September, 1984 said that in Benin, the first to emerge as such a leader almost immediately assumed the position of a king, for by the wisdom he was described as being from heaven {Oyevbegie No Riso.This is the origin of the title Ogiso which came to be the title of the earliest Benin kings, before the advent of Oromiyan

There were 31 Ogisos. Even though some historians think that the Ogiso era began about the year 900AD yet the age of the Edo people's settlement in the kingdom is over 6000 years. Judging from the long history of the people it is reasonable to suggest that the development of their kingship is much longer than the 900 AD. The much revered position of the Benin Monarchy tends to suggest that the people found themselves inseparable from their monarchy which is regarded as the embodiment of custom and culture. The long existence of their king make it unintelligible as to who came first, the people or the king? Thus it is the belief of the Edo people the God sent them to the world along with their kings. Kings are therefore assumed to be born and not created, "Aise Agbon Rio Oba". Coming back to the Ogisos, We have thirty one of them who have been named as follows:-

1. Igodo (or Obagodo) 12. Iredia 23. Oriagba
2. Ere 13. Etebewe 24. Odoligie
3. Orire 14. Odion 25. Uwa
4. Odia 15. Imarhan 26. Eheneden
5. Ighido 16. Orria 27. Ohuede
6. Evbobo 17. Emore {female} 28. Oduwa
7. Ogbeide 18. Orrorio {female} 29. Obioye
8. Emenhen 19. Irrebo 30. Arigho
9. Akhuankhuan 20. Ogbomo 31. Owodo
10. Ekpigho 21. Agbonzeke
11. Efeseke 22. Ediae

The peculiar features of the early Ogisos are:-

Founding of the kingdom: Igodo or Obagodo established the kingdom in the sense that it was during his period the components of Benin were united and formed into a central Administrative Unit.

Establishment of good government and the guild system: His successor Ere (who incidentally was a grandson brought in good laws and established the guild system for which the Edo people are still known.It is to his credit that the palace system was organized and established from which its present form has evolved.

Primogeniture law: Orire brought about the primogeniture law which lasted more than one century. During ogiso Ighido, this law broke down as a result of palace rivalries. It got into a chaotic situation at a time and this gave rise to the saying that "ogiso will only summon the council meeting whenever there is trouble" (Ogiso mamie Emwen Ei Fiagba". This situation remained for nearly two centuries when Ogiso Oriagba re-established the primogeniture laws. This brought stability once more to state. The guild system was re-established and all the arms of the government were re-kindled.

Establishment of Benin Army: The stable situation of the state brought about the formation of the Benin Army during the reign of Ogiso Odoligie. A class of people known as "Iyokuo"-the warriors-- was established.

Inflation and subsequent currency reforms: During the reign of Ogiso Ohuede, there was serious inflation. There were other pestilences which followed. People counterfeited the coins of the realm by bringing illegal money into the country. What really happened was that people suddenly discovered a large quantity of cowries (which was the then known coin or money in use) and there after flooded the country with it. The attendant result was inflation. When Ogiso Obioye came in as ruler, he harnessed the whole currency by nationalizing cowries wherever they were in private hands or with the state. This money became scarce and its value restored. It is this state of affairs which gave rise to the expression "a valuable article purchased with Obioye's Coin". Ogiso Obioye therefore was the first king who reformed the currency.

The plight of Ekaladerhan
The last Ogiso (Owodo) brought a lot of stresses and hardship on the nation he was incompetent. He more or less fell back to the habit of not summoning the state council meeting unless there was trouble. He was preoccupied wit the primogeniture law especially as he had only one son who he thought might die before him which might leave him without a successor. This obsession drove him to consult the oracle as to how he might have more male children who might succeed him. In the end, the tragic episode of Ekaladerhan's banishment came into our history. However, Ekaladerhan by a change of fortune eventually emerged at Uhe (or Ife) as a king with the appellation Ododuwa derived from the Benin word "Izoduwa or Imadoduwa" which is an exclamatory word "I have not missed the path to prosperity" a reminiscence of his surprise at his emerging as a king in a strange land after having left as a refugee
